Vani Catanasiga, a spokesperson for the Bua Urban Youth Network, said her organisation is unhappy with the draft constitution because it gives priority to economic interests, rather that landowners’ ability to decide how their land should be used. The people of Bua already have experience of the Land Bank and they know the way it works to give priority to Chinese mining interests. But it’s only international media like Radio Australia who can broadcast the truth. Any local media who reported this would be punished by the heavy hand of the Bainikhaiyum regime.
